The Gordon Murray Automotive T.50 is still a year away from reaching its 100 customers, but Murray’s team has consistently shared videos of its development. That means we’ve already heard the naturally aspirated V-12 rev up to 12,100 rpm, seen a test mule in action, and watched Murray himself take his first drive in the car with a hard limit of 3,000 rpm.

According to the article, AlixPartners forecasted that automotive manufacturers will produce 7.7 million fewer vehicles in 2021 as a result of the shortage, which is almost double their original number.

Should you pay attention to the 89th running of the 24 Hours of Le Mans this weekend?

If you are a sports car fan, why wouldn’t you? With a very full field of 60 cars, there will be a degree of chaos — experienced driver Kevin Estre wrote off a factory Porsche in the opening lap of Hyperpole qualifying — but there will also be some compelling competition, in all four classes (five in Hypercar, 24 in LMP2, eight in GTE Pro, 23 in GT Am, plus one “innovative car,” an Oreca-Gibson LMP2 headed by Frederic Sausset, a quadruple amputee).

Perhaps the biggest single reason to watch Le Mans is for the pair of Chevrolet Corvette C8.Rs that will be making their debut this year, having missed last year. The mid-engined cars have big shoes to fill: Corvette has eight wins in
